My journey through parenthood

First of all let me just say that this blog is just my experience and my interpretation of things. OK, that being said let me say that I loved being pregnant. At first it was a little hard to get used to gaining all the weight, but I knew it was for the baby and his or her growth. I gained too much weight, like 55 pounds, but I loved gaining it. The first pregnancy and all I just ate whatever I wanted and in large portions. I always told myself I'll loss it afterwards right as I was about to eat something totally naughty. I would definitely change that next time I get pregnant. I would eat healthier foods and in smaller portions. My sex drive was going crazy. I was ready for love all the time. I gained a lot of weight, but I looked good and felt great. I didn't get morning sickness and the baby wasn't sensitive to any food. That meant I could eat lots of spicy food everyday and the baby wasn't bothered by it. The baby wasn't bothered by much. Maternity clothes were expensive, but I wanted to look cute so I went all out, but not cheesy like that may sound. The first time I heard my baby's heartbeat at like 8 weeks it was so special. To think a living little person is growing inside me. The baby was so active by the time I was like 4 or 5 months pregnant. I had to get used to sleeping on my other side (not to sleep on your right side because than the baby is on your organs), but I always slept good. I worked up until the day I gave birth. Every thing was good. I truly enjoyed being pregnant.
